“John was fantastic! He kept us updated on what was going on at home and sent us pictures of the pets each day. He made sure the cats and Guiana pig didn’t miss a step in their routine while we were out of town. Fantastic experience! We will use him again.”

About: I’ve had many experiences with pet sitting dogs and cats. Family, neighbors and friends trust me to take care of their pets. I usually do pet sitting every summer. I am currently unemployed and there's no better way to spend time than take care of animals. I am available any time you need me. What ever you need me to do for your pet | can do, no problem. My schedule is very flexible and I can be there for them.
“Amber was great. She gave me a time that would work for her because she couldn’t do my time and turns out that worked too. I’m a dummy and thought I updated my address so it sent her to the wrong house and she still went to my right address to leave the pups out. Luna and Kallie look like they had a great time and can definitely trust her with my girls!”


“Vanessa did a great job taking care of my cats while we were on vacation. She provided daily updates and made an extra attempt to find the cats in their hiding spots to make sure all was well. I would definitely ask her to pet sit again!”


About: I have taken care of animals for over a year now at a dog daycare/boarding centre in a variety of different circumstances. From Mastiff’s to Chihuahuas, I am confident taking care of various different sized dogs with a variety of different dietary needs from raw diets to kibble diets, medical needs from dogs that get medication once a day to dogs that get medication several times a day, and activity needs from dogs that need regular exercise to senior dogs that don’t need to be exercised. I have also had experience handling dogs that are extremely nervous around new people, dogs that can resource guard toys, and dogs that are highly reactive. I am a full-time commuter college student with large gaps between my morning and afternoon classes which I can travel to and from the owners house to let their dogs out and play with during. The only time that I am unable to stop by the house between classes is on Thursdays where I will be gone from 8 am to 2 pm due to my in-person lab course. I only offer services at my clients house so as of not to subject the pet to unnecessary stress from being in a new environment. I can administer any medication that is not via injection, I can cater to a variety of diets ranging from raw meat every day to freshly cooked food three times a day to kibble twice a day depending on the dogs needs, I have personal leashes that I can use or I can use the owners leashes to take the dog on walks as often as request/needed.
“He is always looking out for our fur baby, and always tries his utmost best to do the best for the cat! He worked extremely hard for the cat to enjoy his presence and not scare her! 10/10”

“Ben is the best! We have been using him for the last year or so and he is always so reliable and communicative. It's so great to know our pups are in good hands.”

About: I have lived with all kinds of animals such as cats, dogs, guinea pigs, fish, and even a sheep since childhood and have plenty of experience caring for my own pets as well as pet sitting for friends and family over the past 5+ years. I have dealt with pill and ear drop administration, managing multiple dogs with different diets, and of course dog walking and cat litter box changing. Currently I have in person college classes on Mondays and Wednesdays but beyond that I have no obligations every other day of the week! Also, on Mondays and Wednesdays I am typically home by 4pm so I am also available in the evenings. Beginning May 7th till the end of May my schedule is almost completely open as of now. I promise to be attentive and caring towards your pet(s) whether that means playing, petting, or simply talking to them to make sure they don’t feel lonely while you’re away. I will follow any and all instructions given to the best of my ability and be sure to give updates and ask questions if there is any uncertainty.

“Shemoy was great taking care of our two kitties and drop in visits! She kept us informed for each of her visits with pictures and she was always quick to respond to any messages. We will definitely have her back!”

“My dogs loved her immediately! A wonderful, professional- couldn’t have asked for more. Pictures and check ins. My dogs were happy when I got home well taken care of.”

“Morgan is FANTASTIC! We ended up booking on short notice and Morgan made an effort to meet us, the dogs, and cat first before taking care of our babies alone. The dogs took to Morgan so quickly! Morgan was very attentive and communicated frequently. I was able to relax knowing my guys were in great hands! Morgan went above an beyond what was asked when taking care of our 2 shepherds. You can tell Morgan has a passion for animals and we will definitely be booking again!”

About: I have always loved dogs and had my own, but I started caring for other people’s dogs at around 13 years old. In early 2022, I started working at the doggy daycare/boarding facility I currently work at, and I am now a manager there. I am responsible for feeding, bathing, administering medication, playing with and cleaning up after dogs of all different breeds, temperaments, ages and sizes, and I couldn’t be more passionate about my job. I currently work full time (at a dog kennel), and my schedule is consistent but switches days every week. I know my schedule very far out in advance so it should be easy to work with! I have 2 dogs at home that are well trained but not very friendly with other dogs, so at home boarding does not work for me. However, at your home, I can work with whatever system you have going for your dogs already, whether that be a crate training system or something different. I have plenty of experience from my current job and can meet all the needs you and your furry friend need to be satisfied:)
About: We are a dog loving household with a 8 year old super friendly jack russel of our own who loves playing with other dogs big or small. We both grew up around dogs big and small and love animals. We love going out back to playing catch and going on family walks to the park with the dog. When you board your dog with us rest assure they will be treated as part of the family. I am currently a SAHM so the dogs get lots of attention and playtime we have a fenced dog area in our backyard, allowing the dogs free range to run and play with eachother. we have also have a side of the house specifically blocked off just for the dogs in the case that they want to rest without being bothered. I am sahm during the week and my husband ia home on the weekend while I work so there is always someone here to give thw dogs attention. I have a fenced dog part and a friendly jack russel as well as 2 kida who love to play and tired the dogs out.
About: I’ve grown up with animals my whole life. My mom breeds old English puppies, with that I get a lot of hand on experience with puppies. That means training them,taking care of them etc. I will treat your pet as if they are my own and make sure you and your pet are satisfied. I’m currently working part-time but with my excellent time management skills, I will be able to care for your pets and mine as well weekly. If I’m staying at a clients house I am very mindful and respectful of their home. I make sure to clean up after my self and make sure to get the animals outside as much as I can. When I just have to walk them I make sure to keep them on a leash and be aware of the surroundings
